Is your company planning a grand opening, ribbon cutting, or ground breaking?
As supporters of a pro-business environment, the Gwinnett Chamber has assisted with thousands of ribbon cuttings and groundbreakings and can walk you through the process of planning, publicizing and holding a successful event.
There are several options to accommodate your organization’s needs. You can host at your own spot. Or, if you are a home-based business, you can celebrate at the chamber office with us! We can also commence the occasion with a digital ceremony too! Let us know how we can help you!
The Chamber does not provide:
- Event planning services, food and/or beverages for events
- Guaranteed attendance numbers. Attendance depends on the date, time, location, type of business and other competing events
- Guaranteed media coverage or the attendance of elected officials (we are not affiliated with the government).
- A Chamber representative at weekend ribbon cuttings.
If you have any questions about kicking off your event, contact Andrianna Butler, Senior Coordinator, Member Services abutler@gwinnettchamber.org
